Artist's Comments

Early at 1900,s Euparkeria Capensis were found from the south African sediments of triassic period.
This is one of my newest models. I builded this thecodont reptile, early at this year. Unfortunately I mounted it to run on its heels. When thi model were done, I learned that it should run by it,s toes. Model is about 60cm long, so it is in scale 1:1.

Wow, thats amazing. What did you use for the modeling?
:icongeomexia:
Woah... another really... awesome sculpture. ^__^
How long does it take you to do these guys?
:thumbsup:
:iconmallimaakari:
Thaks again:)

Models, size of an cat or bigger takes about one to two months. But I spend usually about 1-1,5hrs per day to modelling. If I could use time 8 hrs/day, I guess it would take couple of weeks to finish them.

For example building life-size T-Rex head, it take almost four months!

Wow... that's some serious patience and dedication there.

You do some great work, most definitely. :nod:

Mostly it is sculpted from styrofoam. The surface is sculpted at air-hardening clay, DAS. The fingers are made from Milliput-epoxy putty, because of its denser structure. Aslo milliput is much harder, than DAS so it is perfect for making thinner parts. The datails to fingers and toes are carved by DREMEL multipurpose tool.

You SCULPTURED that?! Why, you little...
This is quite an amazing model. The shape is accurate, the colors are good, though I'm not so fond of the pose... Better on four legs I think.

Now I,m making a Euparkeria 2.0. Hehe... It is mounted on it,s all four legs. Also it is anatomically more accurate than this. Also it ain,t as croc-like, as this fella

:iconmallimaakari:
Thank you!

I wasn,t very happy for the result for some minor inaccuraties. That,s why I made a new one and I,m not happy for it neither. But as a model, this is quite a good:)
